This quote, from Genesis 2:4-7, disagrees with what you are saying. In it, God is creating man before creating the plants in the garden. This makes it impossible for God to have already created the plants three days before.

4 This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created. When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens - 5 and no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth and no plant of the field had yet sprung up, for the LORD God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to work the ground, 6 but streams came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground - 7 the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

God created Man on the 6th day. The creation process was complete. Yet also on that very same day God created a Garden and put Adam in it. With all the plants that were good to look at and eat. The then went about creating the kinds of animals for Adam to name. This does not mean every one only the kind. Dog kind, cat kind, ECT. Variations excluded. Genesis 2:4 is a summary of the creation not a forward of the next verses. The next verses are of Adam and Eve in the Garden on the 6th day. Not a different account of creation.

This is what those who believe in evolution will have you, I and everyone else to believe. This is so that can instill doubt in believers
